This exceptional complicated Patek Philippe comes with archives. Plus: The original Sotheby's catalog, confirming that this particular Patek 1579 was originally owned by "the most famous Industrial designer" in Germany. The article goes on to say that Mr. Schimt's passion for futurist design,... but his love and respect for vintage design and craftsmanship, as embodied by this special Patek 1579 watch. I can understand that appreciation,... especially the stunning angular lugs (unusual design for Patek) of the 1579.
The case is 36mm, and appears to be unpolished, which is AMAZING!!! for a 60 year old watch. The dial has some imperfections, but the dial is 100 % original, and the stunning patina is simply gorgeous. Watch will come with used Patek strap, and 18K gold deployment buckle.
This is a stunningly beautiful piece, and significantly large for a vintage Patek Philippe complicated piece.
I am a well know collector on Timezone (over 1400 posts) and this forum as well.
I'm happy to provide the prospective buyer with references upon request.
Payment is by Bank wire only, Plus shipping and Insurance.
Watch may be shipped "within the United States" or internationally International buyers, kindly inquire).
Thank you for looking.
Cheers,
Arthur
